Hey guys! Sorry its taken me so long to update. Life got a little crazy.
Anyways to those who thought that Lorilie was a little harsh, I just felt
that after all that she had gone through, watching her daughter give up her
hard earned life the same way would be just a little hard to handle.
A few weeks later
"MOM, " Ellie squealed as she ran out of her room to the kitchen downstairs, " Oh, hey daddy, is mom up?"
"I'm about to check, she wasn't feeling very good last night," said Dave as he smiled to his daughter, knowing why she was so happy. " Oh Ellie. Happy Birthday!"
Dave quietly opened to his bedroom as he looked for his wife. Lane sat up in the bed, dressed and ready, looking at a worn photo album.
"What if she gets mad at me? Or mad at Lorilie? What would Rory have done?" Lane muttered under her breath.
"Just what you have done. Raised her daughter like your own, taught her to make responsible choices, and allowed her real family to know her. Rory couldn't have done any better, you make a great mom," said Dave as he sat on his bed, watching his wife and soul mate. " Hey I'm going to go get ready for the party, come down when you feel up to it. Ellie wanted to see you though."
"I'll be down in a second," said Lane as she stood up from the bed, straightening her outfit. She would have to redo her makeup making it the second time she would fix it this morning. 'And several more to come,' she thought as she headed to the bathroom.
*~* about 15 years before *~*
"Hello?" a very sleepy Dave sat up in his single apartment bed.
"Dave, its Lane. Rory has been in an accident"
" How is she? Where is Ellie?"
"Ellie was in the car, Rory had just picked her up, but the hospital people said she is fine. Dave, they won't tell me how Rory is." Lane said frantically as she tried to control her tears.
"Lane, where are you?"
"On the way to Boston. Can you meet me there. I need you."
"I'm on my way. I love you, bye."
Lane stared straight to the road as her hand clicked the speed dial to the one person who cared more for Rory than she did.
"Luke, I need to speak to Lorilie."
